In this study, antibacterial activities of plain knitted fabrics produced from titanium nanoparticles containing polyamide yarns were investigated. For this purpose, titanium nanoparticles were added to the polymer at a rate of 0.05 - 0.10 - 0.15% by weight, and 3 different yarns were produced. Plain knitted fabrics were produced using these yarns. Antibacterial activity test was applied to knitted fabrics according to AATCC 100 standard. S. aureus and K. Pneumoniae bacteria were used in the tests. As a result of the study, it was found that the nano titanium additive at the mentioned ratios did not provide an effective antibacterial property to the fabrics. |
